Another great Aliens comic from Dark Horse

March 29, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Dark Horse, more often than not, has something great figured out with their Aliens comics, and this one is a shining example of that. It's well-written, tightly-paced, and has solid art. I can't wait to pick up part 2.

Just what I needed.

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Two words: Tristan Jones. The kind of artwork I always want in an Alien comic but pretty much never get. Story is fun too- captures the feel of Alien and A:Isolation, while nodding to the other films. I LOVE anything that can portray the world of the first film, so this was a treat. Keep commissioning that artist, Dark Horse!

Almost as original Alien movie

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Honestly. It gave me the same feeling, which many of the Alien comics fail to do. It not quite as good because its not a movie, but its fresh. Highly rec'd.

from the back cover ...

“PRIVATE FIRST CLASS ZULA HENDRICKS IS NO STRANGER TO COMBAT, and war exacts its toll. Fortunately the Weyland–Yutani Corporation has great need for Colonial Marines with grit, be they of sound body or not. In the dark quiet recesses of derelict ships hide monsters humanity has never known … or so Weyland–Yutani might wish us to believe.”

“When Zula discovers why the corporation is searching for xenomorphs, she goes rogue and commandeers their ship, the Europa, with help of the synth unit Davis 01. She’s on a mission to destroy the Aliens before Weyland–Yutani can find them. “

“Warriors like Zula aren’t trained for terror like this. In her effort to save Earth, Zula’s grit will be tested.”
------------
This 160–page color trade paperback represents the first 6–issues of the Dark Horse limited comic book series ALIENS: DEFIANCE published between April 2016–June 2017. It also contains the short story tie–in ALIENS: DEFIANCE–EXTRAVEHICULAR originally published in May 2016 as part of the release FREE COMIC BOOK DAY: SERENITY.

Taking place in the year 2138, this story chronologically falls between the films ALIEN and ALIENS. Also, it takes place one year after the events depicted in the Creative Assembly / Sega video game ALIEN: ISOLATION, and does reference the Seegson Corporation, Sevastopol Station & Amanda Ripley.

Written by Brian Wood (Briggs Land, The Massive, DMZ), the author weaves a solid _ if at times slightly disjointed _ tale of an unlikely trio of idiosyncratic spacefarers, attempting to thwart the always nefarious schemes of Weyland–Yutani. The darkly contrasting visuals are excellently suited to the subject matter, and extremely consistent considering 3 artists were involved. (Tristan Jones: Chapters 1–2 & 5–6, Riccardo Burchielli: Chapter 3, Toni Brescini: Chapter 4).

Why the mediocre 3–star rating? Beginning around the time of the original Amazing Spider–Man #50, I’ve been consuming comic books through 6 long decades. Every now & then, as the stories start to fall flat, I need to take a break. So, these days I’ve been satiating my Alien / Predator appetite more with recently released Omnibus MMPB collections, along with some other interesting new original one–shots & anthologies.

So, blame it more on me & not this worthy paperback.

Better than any of the recent films

Every movie since Aliens (1987) has been a huge disappointment, but Wood shows that it's not difficult to execute a compelling Aliens story.Read more
